The Darwin Variant Audiobook (Free)

Kenneth Johnson plunges readers right into a day-after-tomorrow thriller about an imminent global catastrophe and explores how common people respond to extraordinary circumstances.

When the icy shards of a rogue comet fall to Earth, they provide an unknown virus that accelerates evolution to extremes. Suddenly, infected plants develop stronger, choking out those uninfected. Animals turn aggressive and lethal. The eye of loved ones go frosty, and infected neighbours begin exhibiting signals of brutal domination.

In a little Georgia town, fourteen-year-old Katie McLane sees her neighbors changing, one at a time.

Dr. Susan Perry, an epidemiologist on the Centers for Disease Control and Avoidance, uncovers the frightening scope from the menace. The infected aren’t just growing. They’re conspiring to improve the very nature of what it means to be human being.

Katie and Susan become fugitives due to what they know, encountering bitter betrayals and lethal hazards, but also loves ignited and inspiring camaraderie, as they fight to avoid a viral conspiracy from creating a terrifying brave new world.
